It's quiltmaking made as simple as paint-by-numbers! With a new method called Foundation Piecing, you just follow a numerical sequence to stitch fabric onto a foundation. Even the smallest pieces meet precisely, quickly, and accurately. With 365 projects, you could make one every day of the year. They're organized month-by-month, so you could make a patriotic quilt with the July blocks; a Thanksgiving quilt in November; a Christmas quilt with the December blocks; or pretty floral quilts with each month's flowers. (There are also some whimsical celebrations such as the yellow submarine that marks the day the Beatles came to America.) Photos of quilts made with blocks for each month accompany the complete instructions for the entire foundation piecing process.
I asked for it and I got it. 365 foundation blocks. Some of these are impossibly complex -- well not REALLY but there are enough pieces to keep you pulling your hair out for days. And others are pretty simple. When I got the book I was on overload--there are so many blocks you can put together! If you're really into foundation piecing this is the book for you!

I have not had time to use all the blocks (wish I did) but enjoyed the ones I did use. I have set and browsed through the book several times to get ideas, and always enjoy looking at it again.
A must have for all foundation piecers

This is the second foundation quilt block book that I have bought written by Linda Causse and I can't wait to get started on my next quilt project using one of her latest designs. Since I am a fairly new quilter, I find her books very explicit with instructions and helpful tips, especially for a quilter doing foundation blocks for the first time. Lynne Carlos Fiji Islands
Great for a block a day project

Love this book. Excellent variety of patterns and I can quickly make a block up within a half hour. Very easy and quick for even the new quilter to do paper piecing. By the end of the year I'll have 365 blocks and possible a few quilts finished!
